FRUIT PROSPECTS.—The late heavy
frosts do not :ppe:ar to base injured
the fruit buds, and there isan excel-
tent prospect for fruit, both small and
large. Apple, pear and cherry trees
are loaded with buds and bloom,
phials alone not showing as much
blossom as is usual in this phew -bear-
ing section. Small fruits such as cur
rants, gooseberries and strawberries,
were never more prolific with blooni,
and if they escape late frosts will yield
immense craps. Unless owners of
orchards and gardens take immediate
steps to destroy the caterpillars' nests
which. axe growing at a very rapid
rate just now, their chances of having
mach fruit will be exceedingly slim,
and the trees will speedily be denuded
of their foliage:,

pe p c should be a Iittle back-
ward in accepting Mexican silver, of,
which there is so machfloating around
$ g
just now. The Mexican silver dollar
is onlyworth 9
4 .7 cents of Canadian
money, and a person. who accepts a
piece of money for its face value only
gets half the value of the current coin
of Canada. There is so much of this
cheap money afloat that one is forced
to the conclusion that some "shar er"
has brought ap
g whole bag of Mexican
money, on which he would make over
50 cents on the dollar, if he succeeded.
in passing it off for Canadian change.
Before long a combined effort will like-
ly be made to shut the cheap stuff out,
go citizens should beware and not have
any more than a 25 -cent pocket -piece
in their possession.

DIED .AT PALMEraSTON.—Jas, Hodg-

con. of Usborne, diet!, in Palmerston
on Sunday last. Deceased contracted
a cold in July, and in September bad a
severe attack of bronchitis which com-
pelled hint to quit work. He spent
live months in Muskoka. and was un-
der the caro of some of the best doctors
of the (a. T. R. staff but failed to get
relief till death ended his sufferings.
He was born in Richmond Hill bat
spent the most of his life in the town-
ship of Usborne, till. he accepted a
situation as freight checker on the G,
T. R. at Palmerston about fifteen
years ago. LIe married Miss Elvins
Johns. ten years ago who with at.daaugb-
ter mourn the loss of a kind husband
end loving father, lie was a promin-
eut member of the L O. O. F. under
which order he was buried. He was in
bis 38th year, Mr. Hodgson was an.
exemplary young man, and was held
in high esteem by the citizens of Pal-
tnerston. The rettiains were interred
in the Exeter cemetery on \Vedees-
deay. The large concourse of people in
attendance showed the high esteem
in which he was held. The relatives
have the heartfelt sympathy of the
entire community.

variety of things, such as tables at
which the men will dine at this clamp
instead. of picnic fashion as heretofore.
The men will appreciate the change,
beyond a doubt, and be the envy of
other Battalions who will be compell-
ed to "sit around" after the old style.
The oi1h ,.s are also arranging to sup-
ply tbe men with &raw bats and cot-
ton blouses to wear while at drill. The
blouses will, to be sure, be the military
color, khaki. This will add greatly to
the comfort of the men who have
heretofore drilled in heavy helmets
and hot tunics. The blouses ;and hats
would be doffed, however, on all cere-
monial occasions. It is estimated that
they will cost about ninety -cents per'
man and
the strength of the Bat talion
will be about 315. The martialt spirit
runs high this year and added to this
is the increase of.pay for the Hurons

D1t. T1,a OF Louts TuonNE.—Last'
week we referred briefly to the serious
illness of Mr. Louis Thorne, of Los
4
An ele.. Cal. In this issue 1]'
s ss a of THE
TIMES, we are painfully called upon
to chronicle Mr. Thorne's death, which
sad event occurred at his home in Los
Angeles, on Monday, `list inst. De-
ceased was a native of Devonshire,
England, and came to this country
with his brother (now deceased) when
quite a younginaan, settling in Landoll.
He resided in that city for some time
prior to coming to Exeter. Here 11e
purchased a grocery and liquor busi-
ness from the late W. Hooper, which
he conducted in partnership with lir.
Palmer, for a umbe • ofs
number years. About
y
10 years ago he married Miss F. Drew,
daughter of lir. William. Drew, town.
Selling out to Farmer Bros., Mr.
Thorne moved to Blyth, afterward to
Seaforth, in each of which. villages he
carried on business. Some 12 years
ago he went West, locating in Los.
Angeles, b
e es and frugality has succeed-
ed in am amassing a� goodly compel{
once. Being possessed of amiable
qualities, i1r. Thorne soon dist -
guished himself in the western. ci -
both as agenial fellow -man and a pu"laa
lie -spirited citizen, and was one of the
best known and roost popular igen of
the city. He became identified with
many important projects andheld sev-
eral offices of trust. He was connected
with many fraternal societies, and
has on several occasions visited the
East as a delegate to the Grand
Lodges, etc. Among other important
offices held, he was High Chief Ranger
of the A. O. F. for the State of Cali-
fornia. Though exemplifying his alle-
giance to the country of his adoption,
Mr. Thorne held dear to metnoryhis
pleasant associations with Canada and
Canadians, and was ever anxious to
uphold Canada and extend a hearty
welcome to any of its citizens who yis
ited California. He was a prime mover
in the organizing of the Canadian
club of Los Angeles, which is a healthy
and strong society. Time and money
were no object to him ifhe could ou d make
it pleasant lfor a 'Canadian visitor. He
was liberal and genial in a marked de-
gree, and was a kind friend to the
poor and needy. Over a year ago Mr.
Thorne eves taken ill with heart trou-
ble, and sipce that time has been ailing
more or less, though nothing Serious,
was anticipated. Some weeks ago' he
was taken suddenly w'orse,♦ and gradu-
ally sank until death claimed him.
Word of his illness was received here,
i h regretiie:
with mut by his many friends,
but when his death was announced it
cast a gloom over the town. Deceased
leaves a widow to mourn the loss of an
ideal husband, who has the sympathy
p,
of all in her sad bereavement. The
remains will.' be brought to Exeter for
